Anyone do this ever? From EP/blinds, call a p/f raise, premeditated checkraise. Especially if flop looks bad for AK-type hands.
Its almost a lock that original raiser takes a stab at pot when you check to him. If he hits or misses flop. This S&S&G would net the hero more chips than the S&G. But i guess the villian has more licence to call you down if he has outs, because pot is bigger. The tadeoff is that the c/r looks damn powerful, and can make 2nd button muck, if stack deep enough. But if the stacks are still pretty deep reletive to the blinds, you wouldnt want to try anything this risky.
And, of course, you are gone either way if he flops well.
Can you think of scenarios when a S&S&G is better than S&G?
(not that i do this much, but always looking for edges)
